Falcons to open Mercedes-Benz Stadium roof for Week 9

The Atlanta Falcons will host the Minnesota Vikings at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Week 9. Both teams are 4-4 entering Sunday’s game and looking for a win to move above .500 for the season.

The Falcons are tied with the Saints atop the NFC South and the Vikings are currently in second place in the NFC North. Fans attending the game can get some fresh air as Mercedes-Benz Stadium is set to open the roof for Week 9.

Assuming the weather permits it, it would be the first game in Atlanta this season with the roof open. Sunday’s game kicks off at 1:00 p.m. ET and can be viewed on FOX.

Check out the team’s updated 53-man roster, depth chart and injury report heading into Week 9.
